SKINNY-NOUN: Slang --Inside information; the real facts: "learned the skinny..".
I love this job- freelance illustrating because I have gotten to "learn the skinny" the facts on so many things- and captured them in an image....- what Surfing is like in Maui, with the crescent beaches made from the lava rock as it flowed down to the sea.
Or getting the "skinny" on the Ancient Puebloeons who once lived in Mesa Verde, researching their artifacts and then trying to illustrate what their lives might of looked like.
Or getting the "skinny" on an activity I would never do in a million years, but it is sure interesting to see how those people live.
Guess that is why I love being an illustrator and a writer for that matter!
I especially love the mountain-climbing one. Great perspective!
